Because I can't think of much to write, I will post a whole bunch of pics from the past month or so. Also, we just returned from a trip to LA to see all the in-laws and my FIL who is going through chemotherapy and has lost a ton of weight. He is doing ok and almost done with the chemo.

High&lowlights of the trip:
*Abby received 2 'American Girl' ( Read more... )

School starts tomorrow! Y.E.S. !!!!!

We went to Cedar City, Utah and the Utah Shakespearean Festival over the weekend, Alex and Mike played golf, and I didn't because I had to watch Camille. I was heartbroken. We thought the air in our van wasn't working, but it seems to be now, thank the Lord. Here are a few pics, courtesy of my sister since my ( Read more... )

*Still loving HPatDH and all the discussions about the book. Now finish, Erica! Can't wait to discuss with you...now if we can just tie up your Mom and tape her eyelids open to read the books....

*LOVE "Extras". Just watched the last disc of Season 2 last night and am convinced even further that Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant are sheer genius. ( Read more... )

...but barely. We are surviving summer break, and I mean surviving, because some days I want to get in my car and drive it through a brick wall from being with my older kids 24/7.

Content has been highly edited for length and well, completely inane content. Keep in mind the heavy boredom of a cartrip with 3 kids and no real reading material. And the transcendental feeling of leaving my in ( Read more... )

We just got back from a long 4 days in California. Not that the trip was unenjoyable, but it did seem long, as trips do where you are trying to make about 11 people happy doing various activities including the in-laws. And an amusement park. We went to Legoland, which was about our 3rd time and decided it's probably one of our last since it's for ( Read more... )

This has to be quick since my @#$%^& 'puter keeps booting us off every time we log on to the net. That's why the absence for about 10 days or so....and the problem still continues ( Read more... )

I keep doing this. Waking up at about 4 or 5 and not being to sleep until it's time for everyone else to get up, and it's really annoying me ( Read more... )

Well I made it back in one piece, feels like we've been gone forever, and I can't believe school starts in two days ( Read more... )
